Very interesting 52.
I visited his grave in Glasnevin a few months back. Even though I’d never seen him play and he passed before my parents were born let alone me I still felt emotional standing there.
Thanks for sharing these recollections, 52. Coming straight from the memory rather than checking the facts and stats makes them all the more valuable.
Just looked him up
52 goals in 98 appearances
Top goal scorer in league winning season 1956/57 scoring 26 in the league 33 all competitions
Was he not ‘snake hips’? Or was that Eddie Colman?
